Notes: Notes to self, if no one else:

~Stir mash @ 5 min. Temp/pH @ 15 min. Will calculate strike to hit 154*F so after stirring (well) will settle around 153*F.
~Slow down. ...Valve positions.
~Ensure minimum 6 gallons in BK towards end of boil.
~Aerate wort well. Repeat.
~Dry yeast version here. Use 2 packs and rehydrate.
~Primary fermenter 12-14 days then cold crash 2-3 days before kegging.
~2.1 volumes CO2 at 44F is 10psi.

Notes: Mighty Duck! is an attempt at an extract Kwak clone.

Aiming to produce 40x330ml bottles from this brew so I need at least 13.2l available at bottling time. I'd need an estimated 15-16l going in to the primary fermenter.

Actually got 17l going in to the primary, topped up a little, to 18.5l, to bring the OG down from 1.078 to 1.070.

If I'd left the OG at 1.078 and fermentation ends at the anticipated 1.016 then the ABV would be 8.14% - closer to Kwak's actual 8.4%.

FG reading is 1.010 giving an ABV of 7.88%

Moved 15.5l to a secondary FV after primary completed. Is clearing nicely after the first week.

Bottled 46 x 330ml bottles from the secondary. Very little sediment and a good, clear, beer going in to the bottles.

Beer at bottling was sitting at 11C hence the lower volume of brewing sugar (corn sugar) than I'd normally expect for a target CO2 volume of 2.2.

1st photo is Kwak on the left, Mighty Duck on the right after 1 week in the secondary. Has the banana hit you get from Kwak.

The flavour development in the bottle has been interesting.

For the first month of bottle conditioning I tasted a bottle at week 1 and 2 and the banana flavour was reducing with bitterness increasing. I waiting until it had a full month in the bottle before tasting again and it was the same change - even less banana and more bitterness.

Zero carbonation at the end of month 1.

Waiting until month 2 and a big change - banana flavour is starting to re-appear and that rich Belgian Dubbel flavour is starting to appear. The bitterness has almost completely dissipated.

End of month 2 and the carbonation is starting to appear, a good hiss when the bottle opens but overall carbonation is light.

The beer is almost completely clear now too.

Now waiting for month 3...

Notes: Earlier tastings were extremely oaky(bottling + 2 weeks), the oak has now mellowed a bit (Bottling + 55 days), but is still a little overpowering. I'll consider halving the amount of oak in next year's batch (1oz instead of 2 for 2 gal), as it is difficult to detect any of the peatier notes from the peated malt with all that oak. Otherwise, very tasty, friends were shocked that it was home-made.

----------------------
I wasn't picking up any lavender when I was emptying the sediment after about 2 weeks, so I boiled some additional Lavender and added it in. I'm a big lavender fan, so I really liked it. If you want more of a subtle flavor, I'd stick with just the measurement used in the recipe. Didn't pick up much lemon flavor, probably because the hops were pretty intense. Overall I was pretty happy with the brew.

Notes: Cane sugar is included to represent the sugars of 64oz blueberry juice plus 48oz pomegranate juice, converting their natural sugar from grams to pounds.

Yeast used: Lalvin 71B, 25g (5 standard packets)

The fruit is listed under "Steeping Grains" but is actually added directly to the fermenter along with the juice.
